QUESTION 1

In this context, genetic engineering is a field of genetics based on the direct manipulation of the genome of organisms. This task can be accomplished by a set of technologies that allow us to change, add or remove different genes in a single cell. This field is used to produce determined proteins or to observe the effect of a determined gene in an organism.
